Telling the story of four performers whose performance of the Bard’s royal tale is taking a turn for the worse, A Winter’s Tale is a hilarious new play that turns William Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale on its head.

Aimed at children aged between seven and 10, the show explores a world of petty jealousies and playground rites in which it’s always the servants who draw the short straw.

A Winter’s Tale is directed by the Unicorn theatre’s Artistic Director Purni Morell.
